Family history – the birth of a star

For a vehicle to become a legend can take years - or only seconds.

Since its market launch in 2010, the SLS AMG model series has caused a stir around the world.

The ground breaking success of the first vehicle developed independently by Mercedes-AMG was quickly evidenced by overwhelming demand for the vehicle and the winning of countless mainstream awards as well as of many comparison tests.

Through the unique and diverse range of models offered in the super sports car family - Coupé, Roadster, GT, Black Series; not to mention the out-and-out racing car version, the SLS AMG GT3, and the SLS AMG Electric Drive, the most powerful series-production electric car in the world - these exceptional vehicles have played a defining role in the area of high-performance vehicles. What's more, since the beginning of 2010 the SLS AMG has been the Official F1® Safety Car in Formula 1 racing, the king of motorsport.

With the SLS AMG GT FINAL EDITION, the SLS AMG - which today is already viewed as a classic car of the future - is being given a fitting finale; and it will remain a defining part of automotive history.
